I'm still running bangernomics , I've decided I don't like depreciation on everyday cars and the thought of £300 a month to rent a Kia fills me with dread so I bought a 2003 TD6 Range Rover with a blown up engine for £1000 , it's fixed now and so far hasn't cost me any money but the main problem is the amount of upgrades available
I like it that much I was considering putting the money from the B class towards a newer one but when I look at the numbers they don't add up , 8-10k gets me a 2008-10 with similar mileage and the one I have has most of the big jobs already done
That cheap RR I had got me into the things, hence why there is a Supercharged petrol version sat on the driveway. The TD6 needs a remap to release its power, takes it from158 to about 225 with increased torque. We had a Celtic tune put on ours made it faster, easier to tow with and added a good 5-10mpg dependent on town or motorway use
